They're looking to welcome an Audit Assistant to the team, a fantastic opportunity for someone seeking the next step in their audit career. This is a firm that truly invests in its people, offers clear progression, and provides the chance to be part of a dynamic, expanding team.

  • Assist in planning and executing audits for a diverse client portfolio, ensuring compliance with regulations
  • Work closely with senior team members to deliver high-quality audit services
  • Prepare financial statements and support clients with technical queries
  • Develop client relationships, providing advice and insights beyond compliance
  • Continue progressing with professional qualifications, with full study support provided

What we're looking for:

  • Working towards ACA/ACCA with a background in audit
  • Previous experience within an accountancy practice
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Confident communicator, eager to build relationships with clients and colleagues
  • Ambitious, with a drive to progress in a growing firm

What this role can offer you:

  • Flexible and hybrid working
  • Full study support to help you qualify
  • A culture where people genuinely enjoy coming into the office
  • A strong social environment, with regular events and activities
  • Rapid progression in an expanding team, working directly alongside some of the best in the industry
